Queen Mab was one of the first pair of English-bred Thoroughbred horses imported to the Province of Maryland in 1747 by Provincial Governor of Maryland, Samuel Ogle.[2][3]
Queen Mab was given to Ogle by Lord Baltimore during Ogle's trip to England in 1740.[1] The importation of Queen Mab and Spark established the Belair Stud legacy.[4]
